Incorrect. In Illinois we have “The Combine”. There is really no difference between the two on a party level. Oh, we have some fine individual conservatives rattling around. But the Central Committee downstate is every bit as corrupt as the upstate Dem Committee is.
I know. I was personally involved at the County level.
Rauner is about as Republican as Pritzker is.

That’s right, “The Combine”, I forgot the term.
Is the “Central Committee downstate” nominally R or D ?
